Article Abstract
Coupling of Rayleigh waves propagating along two metal surfaces separated by a narrow fluid channel is predicted and experimentally observed. Although the coupling through a fluid (water) is weak, a strong synchronization in propagation of Rayleigh waves even for the metals with sufficiently high elastic contrast (brass and aluminum) is observed. Dispersion equation for two polarizations of the coupled Rayleigh waves is derived and experimentally confirmed. Excitation of coupled Rayleigh waves in a channel of finite length leads to anomalously low transmission of acoustic energy at discrete set of resonant frequencies. This effect may find useful applications in the design of acoustic metamaterial screens and reflectors.

Terahertz (THz) radiation is widely recognized as a non-destructive, label-free, and highly- sensitive tool for biomedical detections. Nevertheless, its application in precision biomedical fields faces challenges due to poor spatial resolution caused by intrinsically long wavelength characteristics. THz scanning near-field optical microscopy (THz-SNOM), which surpasses the Rayleigh criterion, offers micrometer and nanometer-scale spatial resolution, making it possible to perform precise bioinspection with THz imaging.

Surface angled cracks on critical components in high-speed machinery can lead to fractures under stress and pressure, posing a significant threat to the operational safety of equipment. To detect surface angled cracks on critical components, this paper proposes a "Quantitative Detection Method for Surface Angled Cracks Based on Full-field Scanning Data". By analyzing different ultrasonic signals in the full-field scanning data from laser ultrasonics, the width, angle, and length of surface angled cracks can be determined.

Article Synopsis
- Ultrasonic biochemical detection is crucial for identifying biomarkers and monitoring drugs, but current methods are expensive and unreliable, making them unsuitable for low-cost rapid testing.
- This study introduces a new detection mechanism using Rayleigh scattering from nanoparticles, which alters sound pressure and enhances measurement reliability by modifying antibodies on a separate substrate.
- Results show that using a CMUT chip, the detection of CA19-9 cancer antigen is successful across various concentrations, while minimizing interference from other markers, proving the effectiveness of this approach.

The current key issues in applying acoustofluidics in engineering lie in the inflexibility of manufacturing processes, particularly those involving modifications to piezoelectric materials and devices. This leads to inefficient prototyping and potentially high costs. To overcome these limitations, we proposed a technique that is capable of prototyping acoustofluidic devices in a straightforward manner.

Article Synopsis
- * A significant challenge in this testing method is the interference caused by surface conditions, including both random factors (like contamination) and permanent factors (like surface roughness).
- * The research conducted evaluated how different levels of surface roughness (ranging from 0.28 to 219 µm) impacted the propagation of ultrasonic waves, revealing that roughness notably affects wave attenuation and transit time, with differences over 15 dB in signal amplification and more than 50 µs in transition time.
